9:55a - WOO HOO!
I have a job interview tomorrow! Yipee. It is at Children's Service Center for a group home director. I would be in charge of all the people who work at a group home. Call it a power trip but I want a job where people have to answer to me. And I don't really mind working at a group home, especially if it is with kids. The pay isn't bad ($10 an hour) and they offer benefits and paid vacation and sick days. So, hopefully this will work out and I will be employed by the beginning of next month! I am so excited.
And of course the guy who called had to fuck with me. I almost hung up on him. He woke me up and was like "Are you still looking for a job" and I said yes and he was all "we are looking for a forklift operator" and I thought to myself "What does CSC need with a forklift" and I told him I wan't interested and I was going to hang up on him but then he said he was just kidding. I'm glad I didn't hang up on him.
I think, even if Travelocity calls, I will take CSC because there is room for growth. And it would look way better on a resume. I feel bad because we were so excited about working together but I think this is a better oppertunity. And this is more along the lines of what I want to do. I love kids and always wanted to work with them, just not in the role of teacher.
Well, I am off to do Tae-Bo and eat something.

4:34p - Decisions, decisions
So here is the latest on my unemployment. Children's Service Center called today. I really want that job. I have an interview tomorrow at 10 am. I had my phone interview with Travelocity. She told me to come in for an interview Monday and I start training on the 28th. Would rather not but I will do it for money. Now, here is the catch. What if CSC does not give me an answer right away? I will have to say yes to Travelocity because I need the cash but what if CSC calls a week later and hires me? I feel bad quitting Travelocity after a week or so. That is really shitty. Ok, I need to make a list.
Travelocity
+Laura will be working there
+Willing to hire me on the spot
+I will begin working right away
+ or - ?? Some pay is based on comission (this can go either way)
-Kind of like telemarketing (the customers call in)
-There is a goal call volume. I don't know what happens if you don't make it.
-I will have to work weekends and holidays
Children's Service Center
+I would work with kids
+More independent job - i.e no boss breathing down my neck all day
+Easier work (for me at least)
+This job will look better on a resume
+I make the schedule
+Looser job requirements
+Less stress
-They haven't offered me the job yet
-Not sure how much travel is involved (no car...ugh)
According to the pros/cons list, I should take CSC but what if they don't offer the job to me by the 28th. I feel bad starting a job, only to quit. But I don't want to pass it up because what if CSC does not hire me! Someone help, please.
